My condolences to Chuck´s family. I am sorry to be so late responding. I only just learned of his passing. I met him in 1948 in the 6 th grade in Swaney Grade School. We became friends, and played baseball, basketball, and track together all thru grade school and highschool. I enjoyed his friendship very much. He was always happy and friendly and was respected by all.
